DK Donuts & Little Bean Espresso (1300 W State St, Boise, ID 83702 (208) 385-7480) has a special place in my heart. For about a year I lived just across the street, in a dilapidated house that contained no less than four raging alcoholics at a time. My place was in the basement, where I avoided much of the drama in exchange for mildew. I didn't have much money at the time, and most of my food came in the form of Ramen noodles or canned food graciously given by churches. Still, everyone needs an occasional treat, and mine was DK. Every other weekend, said basement would be filled with a collection of my nerd friends, where we would stay up late into the night playing Dungeons and Dragons. After the party had slain the heroes (because of course, everyone wanted to play as the bad guys,) we would venture over to DK, where plenty of fresh donuts could be found in spite of the late hour.
